releases: document `releases/latest` tag (#17402)
We got rid of `master` after #17377, but users still want a way to get the latest stable release without knowing its number. We've added a `releases/latest` tag to replace what was once `master`. Co-authored-by: Massimiliano Culpo <massimiliano.culpo@gmail.com>
